Videotel Digital introduces touchless media player

November 10, 2020

Videotel Digital, a manufacturer of industrial grade digital signage media players, looping DVD players, touchless interactive solutions and directional sound speakers, has enhanced Touchless Wave, its solution to seamlessly integrate not only with both its VP71XD and VP90 4K HD interactive media players, but with most digital signage media players with simple customization.

Wave, a proximity sensor that requires no direct line of sight, was originally designed to touchlessly trigger a video/image content change with a looped message meant to address an active viewer when approaching the screen. Now, when incorporated with Videotel Digital's interactive media players, Wave can also allow an active viewer to interact with a kiosk or touchscreen without fear of contamination, according to a press release.

"Any customer-facing business can now create informative interactive displays that allow customers to search for what they need without the need without fear of contamination. Videotel Digital's technology offers a way to engage and educate customers touchlessly," Lisa Schneider, Videotel Digital's EVP of marketing and sales, said in the release. "Wave is really ideal for all types of interactive displays and kiosks where you want to provide a unique and safe touchless or contactless alternative."
